What’s Happening:
- Body-swapping shenanigans are about to happen again to Lindsay Lohan and Jamie Lee Curtis, with the arrival of Freakier Friday in theaters on August 8th, 2025.

- “Take Me Away," a song first performed by the Australian band Lash, was covered in the original Freaky Friday by Christina Vidal for the film’s fictional band Pink Slip.

You're it, You're the Ultimate:
- Hearing “Take Me Away" instantly took me back to what I think is a more memorable song, “Ultimate." That song was written for the 2003 film and performed by Lindsay Lohan.
- Specifically, I can recall the music video popping up during commercial breaks on Disney Channel over 20 years ago at this point.
